I believe that every basketball player needs to be able to dribble, pass, and shoot the basketball. The sessions I create aim to focus on all three skills equally. Based on the player's current skill set, we may allocate more time to a specific area depending on what I believe you need.
My intention is to teach the game the way I played it and train my athletes as I was trained.
This involves placing a strong emphasis on fundamentals and striving to become masters at the basics, making the game as simple as possible. However, I also understand the importance of incorporating new and exciting moves and footwork into the training. These techniques can be utilized in games or any competitive setting.
​
My primary focus will always be on developing a solid foundation of skills, while also incorporating elements of creativity and innovation to enhance overall performance.
